In a recent interview, Billie explained her decision: “I just hate when it’s taken out of context. Every time I’ve put a single out, it doesn’t do what I wanted it to do. Without the family surrounding it, it feels so wrong and weird... I really like when I get to listen to an album and all of the music is new.”
